When inbound messages arrive, rpmsg core looks up their associated
endpoint (by destination address) and then invokes their callback.
We've made sure that endpoints will never be de-allocated after they
were found by rpmsg core, but we also need to protect against the
(rare) scenario where the rpmsg driver was just removed, and its
callback function isn't available anymore.
This is achieved by introducing a callback mutex, which must be taken
before the callback is invoked, and, obviously, before it is removed.

When an inbound message arrives, the rpmsg core looks up its
associated endpoint and invokes the registered callback.
If a message arrives while its endpoint is being removed (because
the rpmsg driver was removed, or a recovery of a remote processor
has kicked in) we must ensure atomicity, i.e.:
- Either the ept is removed before it is found
or
- The ept is found but will not be freed until the callback returns
This is achieved by maintaining a per-ept reference count, which,
when drops to zero, will trigger deallocation of the ept.
With this in hand, it is now forbidden to directly deallocate
epts once they have been added to the endpoints idr.

Add a virtio-based inter-processor communication bus, which enables
kernel drivers to communicate with entities, running on remote
processors, over shared memory using a simple messaging protocol.
Every pair of AMP processors share two vrings, which are used to send
and receive the messages over shared memory.
The header of every message sent on the rpmsg bus contains src and dst
addresses, which make it possible to multiplex several rpmsg channels on
the same vring.
Every rpmsg channel is a device on this bus. When a channel is added,
and an appropriate rpmsg driver is found and probed, it is also assigned
a local rpmsg address, which is then bound to the driver's callback.
When inbound messages carry the local address of a bound driver,
its callback is invoked by the bus.
This patch provides a kernel interface only; user space interfaces
will be later exposed by kernel users of this rpmsg bus.
